Got a TD of apache 180.
Can't believe people tell that sitting position of apache is more aggressive than that of R15.I found it comfortable."Vibes transmitted from crank shaft to frame, then through the bearings of the head stock and into the stem where it meets the triple clamp and into the clip-ons where it is greeted with great pleasure by my hands"-ratfighter mod rtrComment

Re: TVS Apache RTR 180
You might've ridden the new version. I personally think the old version was very aggressive. New one is relatively comfortable. Even then, yes, the RTR is nowhere near as aggressive as the r15 in ergonomics.Originally posted by albyjose View Post
what about other aspects of the bike? Any other observations?

Yes,it was the new version.If I had not known about the vibration issue of apache,I am sure I will not have felt it at all.Originally posted by madhav766 View PostYou might've ridden the new version.

Safe to say this was the most fun bike I have ever ridden!(I have not ridden duke
,made me think of getting RTR second hand,can't get that thought out of mind now)And the service center guy was the coolest,he let me ride as much as I wanted and let me rip it.This is very unusual in kerela,as they would normally ask to book it,before test drive.
Yeah,ok.Its just that I heard so many times.Originally posted by shahbaz63 View Post"Vibes transmitted from crank shaft to frame, then through the bearings of the head stock and into the stem where it meets the triple clamp and into the clip-ons where it is greeted with great pleasure by my hands"-ratfighter mod rtrComment

Anybody here have ridden both 2012 and pre-2012 version of 180?
I want to know that,whether there is a difference in riding stance!I always thought it was a pure cosmetic upgrade.
Checking out std versions now,as ABS is very rare and expensive in the second hand market."Vibes transmitted from crank shaft to frame, then through the bearings of the head stock and into the stem where it meets the triple clamp and into the clip-ons where it is greeted with great pleasure by my hands"-ratfighter mod rtrComment

Yes!!! Riding position is different but this all are completely dependent on Rider, I feel 2012 more stable at higher speed then 2011, personally i like 2011 Mode's look more then 2012 but I won 2012 one ...Comment
